Mommy, Marriage, & Money... The Juggle is REAL!
Oh my goodness, It has been a long time since you guys have heard from me! The break was not intended but much needed as life changes have left me a little scattered minded, lol, literally! Let me fill you in on all the details...
After seven years I have started motherhood all over again! May 2, 2017 I had a handsome baby boy, (Caleb, my Tank Tank)! My daughter (Camren, my Stank Stank) has been the best little helper and is beyond excellent with her brother! Lets not forget to mention that I'm newly married, working, AND pushing Tifphoria into some new things.
These changes came quick and I have had a time trying to figure out how to juggle it all! Even now as I'm trying to type, the little one is crying and Camren is laying so close to me that I can barely move my fingers over the keyboard. I'm continually breaking to change diapers, fix bottles, engage with my daughter, and cook dinner... this is just a Saturday evening during summer break! Can you imagine what it will be like during the week when I have to get up to go to work, summer break for the kids is over, and my husband is home! While these changes bring happy moments and lasting memories it has all been a bit overwhelming. "Me time" has become non-existent and sleep deprivation is at an all time high! One scripture that I have found helpful with all this is Isaiah 41:13:
" I am the Lord your God; I strengthen you and tell you, ‘Do not be afraid; I will help you."
If you find yourself becoming overwhelmed
with life and needing to find balance look back on this scripture and pray for guidance and understanding on how to manage your family and busy schedule wisely. Although it can be hard it is important to make time for yourself and continue to do things that you enjoy as an individual!
